1 owner til 2015. 9 inch pile of documentation!

One of the most documented SS in the country with a great story. A marine returned from Vietnam in 1969 and treated himself to a brand new 1970 SS. He owned it until he passed in 2015, 46 years. He also kept all the documentation from original invoice to a gas mileage log. In 1999 the motor was a little tired, he decided to build a beast. We have a VHS tape of him installing a 502 motor. He also... upgraded to a Super T-10 4-speed, 9" rear, 4 wheel disc and Hotchkis suspension components. It was built right. Runs mean, cruises nice.
